The Korean Weekly is going to start off with a bang! Two of the best and brightest players in the scene, EG.IdrA and SlayerS.Taeja will battle out on the debut of the Korean Weekly Season 2!

With $400 in prizes thanks to Twitch TV these two titans will battle in an epic Best of 7 series!

EG's IdrA needs no introduction, he is one of the very premiere players representing the Non-Korean scene, and one of the most consistent Zerg players. His heavy macro style has paved the way for Zerg players around the planet, and he remains the most popular player in Starcraft II by far.

SlayerS.Taeja is the undisputed king of the Korean Weekly, with a resume that reads like no other in the tournament. He has achieved 6 1st place finishes, a second place, and a fourth making him the most dominant players the Korean Weekly history by and far. Recently dropping down to Code A by the hands of none other then his mentor and coach SlayerS.Boxer, he is one of the most promising Terrans heading into 2012.

Lovely, I'll be looking forward to this. TaeJa to win 4-2, his marine-heavy style with fast ups should do well against IdrA.

Just occured to me that they are in the SlayerS teamhouse. They must have practiced together. This will be so good.

It's part of the Korean Weekly. Taeja has this, but it'll be close. 4-3

Although I bet Taeja is already spending the money.

Can't say this enough, this is something I came up with after we had reached the 2012 deal, as usual Twitch pulled through in a big way.

Also of course thanks to both IdrA and Taeja for accepting to play this match .
